Intended Use
CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System When used as a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures at one or two contiguous levels within the cervical spine (C2-T1), in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD). DDD is defined as neck pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is intended for use with autograft and /or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and supplemental fixation (i.e. anterior cervical plate such as the Orthofix ACP or Hallmark® System). Patients must have undergone a regimen of at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to being treated with the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System in the cervical spine. When used as a Partial Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System, the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) for partial replacement (i.e., partial replaced vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors, to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The CONSTRUX Mimi PEEK Spacer System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period of time. The Partial VBR device is intended to be used with autograft or allograft. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is intended for use with internal fixation. The supplemental internal fixation system that may be used with the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is the Orthofix Spinal Fixation System (SFS) or the Firebird Spinal Fixation System. CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures at one or two contiguous levels within the cervical spine (C2-T1), in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD). DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is intended for use with autograft and /or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and supplemental fixation system (i.e. anterior cervical plate such as the Orthofix ACP or Hallmark® System). Patients must have undergone a regimen of at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to being treated with the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System in the cervical spine.
Device Description
CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System: The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System is comprised of a variety of implants manufactured from PEEK and with titanium markers. The implants are available in two footprint sizes, a small and a large. The implants are available in various heights, in onemillimeter increments. The superior and inferior surfaces of the implant have a pattern of ridges to provide increased stability and help prevent anterior/posterior movement of the device. CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System: The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is comprised of a variety of implants that has a PEEK core with integrated porous Titanium end plates. The superior and inferior Titanium plate surfaces of the implant provide increased stability for the implant. The implants are available in three footprint sizes and various heights. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti spacer is implanted in the cervical intervertebral disc space and is intended to facilitate vertebral fusion by stabilizing adjacent vertebrae, maintaining disc height, and preventing the collapsing of one vertebrate onto another.
More Information

No reference devices were used in this submission

No
The document describes a physical implant (spacer system) made of PEEK and titanium, intended for spinal fusion. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any other components that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance data section focuses on mechanical testing and clinical outcomes of the physical device.

Yes.

The device is intended for spinal fusion procedures to treat degenerative disc disease, restore biomechanical integrity, and treat fractures, which are medical treatments for conditions.

No

This device is an implant used for spinal fusion procedures, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states the device is comprised of physical implants made from PEEK and titanium, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System and CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System are described as implants used in spinal fusion procedures and partial vertebral body replacement. They are physical devices implanted into the body to provide structural support and facilitate fusion.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: The text does not mention any testing of biological samples or any diagnostic function of the device. Its purpose is entirely therapeutic and structural.

Therefore, the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Spacer System and CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System are medical devices, but they fall under the category of implantable surgical devices, not in vitro diagnostics.
